Power Stop Friction Z16 Ceramic Brake Pads - Front - 16-376

Z16 ceramic pads offer superior street brake performance for spirited drivers. Power Stop ceramic pads offer quiet, low dust, vibration free operation while maintaining outstanding pads bite at high termperatures. Z16 pads are 100% non-ferrous to eliminate annoying noise from metal to metal contact between the rotor and pad. The pads are easy on the rotor, and built to OEM specifications, slotted, chamfered and shimmed.

Pedal pressure sensitivity is a critical characteristic for friction performance. The pad should hold a relatively constant friction coefficient (Mu) at any pedal pressure. The Power Stop Z series pads are highly resistant to brake fade. Leading competitive pads show lower pad bite at high pedal pressure. Results vary depending on vehicle type.

Power Stop ceramic pads offer superior stopping distance than leading ceramic brands. While stopping power is the number one requirement, our pads are stealthy quiet.

Results vary depending on vehicle type.

Slotted and drilled rotors will accelerate pad wear up to 20%. Power Stop metallic pads give you more pad for the money, lasting up to 3 times longer than other leading brands. Power Stop pads are also easy on your rotors to prevent grooving. Results vary depending on vehicle type.
